    I absolutely love how her loves her. If you ever heard Emma speak of how he pulled her out of the deepest pit of despair when she was shell-shocked by Kenneth cheating on her and leaving her, you would love him too :-). He is a great man. The complete opposite of Willoughby :-)

    I so agree with Emma's comment about the psychosis of buying. The lovely generous spirit of giving has been hijacked in many cases by obsessive hunting, guilt over not being able to afford the latest thing or going into debt. Being able to sustain the true meaning of the holiday: peace on Earth, Goodwill towards men because the Savior was born-Emmanuel is possible though-even as our materialistic culture plummets down the cliff of overindulging and buy buy buy the latest gadget . I try to be mindful. Don't get me wrong I love to give gifts to friends and coworkers but I want to do it out of a pure motive not because I feel compelled or pushed. I love the spirit they both exhibited here. The Spirit of Christmas is to be sustained not just during this season and this video is a poignant reminder.

    There's nothing wrong with exchanging gifts or giving gifts at Christmas! That's also part of the story when the three wise men brought gifts to offer to Jesus aka Yeshua since he was Jewish! Only most people overdo that and buy either tons of gifts or they spend a lot of money on high end pricey gifts instead of keeping it simple! K.I.S.S....keep it simple stupid as the old saying goes! "Less is more" when it comes to gifts. People actually appreciate homemade/handmade gifts and simple things made and or bought with love! Merry Xmas to all and to all a good night! Don't forget to be thankful...gratitude goes a long way! Thanks for sharing~ signed another bookaholic!
